addrconf_verify(...) only traverse address hash table when addrconf_hash_lock is held for writing, and it may hold addrconf_hash_lock for a long time. So I think it's better to acquire addrconf_hash_lock for reading instead of writing Signed-off-by: Yan Zheng <yanzheng@21cn.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

From: Alexandra Kossovsky <Alexandra.Kossovsky@oktetlabs.ru> From http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4746 There is user data corruption when using ioctl(SIOCGIFCONF) in 32-bit application running amd64 kernel. I do not think that this problem is exploitable, but any data corruption may lead to security problems. Following code demonstrates the problem #include <stdint.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/time.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <net/if.h> #include <sys/ioctl.h> char buf[256]; main() { int s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0); struct ifconf req; int i; req.ifc_buf = buf; req.ifc_len = 41; printf("Result %d\n", ioctl(s, SIOCGIFCONF, &req)); printf("Len %d\n", req.ifc_len); for (i = 41; i < 256; i++) if (buf[i] != 0) printf("Byte %d is corrupted\n", i); } Steps to reproduce: Compile the code above into 32-bit elf and run it. You'll get Result 0 Len 32 Byte 48 is corrupted Byte 52 is corrupted Byte 53 is corrupted Byte 54 is corrupted Byte 55 is corrupted Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

If two packets were queued to be sent at the same time in the future, their order would be reversed. This would occur because the queue is traversed back to front, and a position is found by checking whether the new packet needs to be sent before the packet being examined. If the new packet is to be sent at the same time of a previous packet, it would end up before the old packet in the queue. This patch places packets in the correct order when they are queued to be sent at a same time in the future. Signed-off-by: Andrea Bittau <a.bittau@cs.ucl.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: David S.

kseriod and kgameportd used to process all pending events before checking for freeze condition. This may cause swsusp to time out while stopping tasks when resuming. Switch to process events one by one to check freeze status more often. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru>

If thread that submitted FF request gets interrupted somehow it will release request structure and ioctl handler will work with freed memory. TO prevent that from happening switch to using wait_for_completion instead of wait_for_completion_interruptible. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru>

Also fix a potential issue with some notebooks: The current code assumes the response to bios_wifi_get_default_setting is either 1 (disabled) or 3 (enabled), or wifi isn't supported. The BIOS response appears to be a bit field w/ 0x1 indicating hardware presence, 0x2 indicating actiation status, and the other 6 bits being unknown/reserved -- with the patch, these 6 bits are ignored.

A driver for laptop buttons using an x86 BIOS interface that is apparently used on quite a few laptops and seems to be originating from Wistron. This driver currently "knows" only about Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo Pro V2000 (i.e. it can detect the laptop using DMI and it contains the keycode->key meaning mapping for this laptop) and Xeron SonicPro X 155G (probably can't be reliably autodetected, requires a module parameter), adding other laptops should be easy. In addition to reporting button presses to the input layer the driver also allows enabling/disabling the embedded wireless NIC (using the "Wifi" button); this is done using the same BIOS interface, so it seems only logical to keep the implementation together. Any flexibility possibly gained by allowing users to remap the function of the "Wifi" button is IMHO not worth it when weighted against the necessity to run an user-space daemon to convert button presses to wifi state changes.

The receiver status register reports latched error conditions, which must be cleared by writing to it. However, the data register reports unlatched conditions which are associated with the current character. Use the data register to interpret error status rather than the RSR.

We were using udelay in the loop on the primary cpu waiting for the secondary cpu to take the timebase value. Unfortunately now that udelay uses the timebase, and the timebase is stopped at this point, the udelay never terminated. This fixes it by not using udelay, and increases the number of loops before we time out to compensate. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Patch from Daniel Jacobowitz After delivering a signal (creating its stack frame) we must check for additional pending unblocked signals before returning to userspace. Otherwise signals may be delayed past the next syscall or reschedule. Once that was fixed it became obvious that the ARM signal mask manipulation was broken. It was a little bit broken before the recent SA_NODEFER changes, and then very broken after them. We must block the requested signals before starting the handler or the same signal can be delivered again before the handler even gets a chance to run.

This involves some minor changes: a few unused functions that the ppc32 pci.c provides are no longer declared here or exported; pcibios_assign_all_busses now just refers to the pci_assign_all_buses variable on both 32-bit and 64-bit; pcibios_scan_all_fns is now just 0 instead of a function that always returns 0 on 64-bit.
